■ General Packet Radio Service (GPRS)
GPRS technology is a network service that allows mobile phones to be used for
sending and receiving data over an Internet Protocol (IP) -based network. GPRS is
a data bearer that enables wireless access to data networks such as the Internet.
The applications that may use GPRS are MMS and SMS messaging (SMS, Short
Message Service), browsing sessions, Java application downloading and the PC
dial-up (for example, Internet and e-mail).
Note that your phone supports three simultaneous GPRS connections. For
example, you can receive multimedia messages and, at the same time, have an
ongoing PC dial-up connection or browsing session.
